Abstract
Abstract This study concerns a geospatial analysis of public healthcare infrastructure in Haryana, India, focusing on the availability and accessibility of healthcare facilities. The analysis revealed significant disparities in the distribution of such infrastructure in Haryana. A shortfall was found in the presence of community health centers (CHCs), primary health centers (PHCs), dispensaries, and health subcenters (HSCs). The findings in terms of disparities strongly point to and signify the shortfall of national and regional public health policies. There is a pressing need for strategic planning to address the escalating demand for and access to new health facilities among Haryana's population. Personal and population health—and therefore healthcare infrastructure—is a crucial component and indicator of the Human Development Index, and is a key factor in increasing labor productivity, obtaining higher levels of well-being, and boosting economic prosperity, as are “health promotion” measures in welfare and other societal dimensions and the heeding of societal ethics.
